Choosing fear or love determines what you see now

     I am writing this in the wake of 3 days of police violence in the USA.  First, two police shootings in the process of arrest in Louisiana and Minnesota and then a gunman making the choice to retaliate against police in Dallas without warning.  The reason that these incidents have had such an effect is that they were all broadcast nearly in real time over the Internet for millions to see.  Combined with the recent massacre in Orlando Florida and the numerous other shootings people are crying out for an end to this senseless violence.  How will it stop?  What choices can we make to end this cycle of violence?

     Most of us will never experience gun violence in our lives, yet over one million people have died in the United States by guns in the last 50 years.  Another 1.5 million have committed suicide in that same time.  Clearly something is out of balance and with our instantaneous news media being beamed to our devices wherever we are, we have now become hyper-aware that there indeed is a huge problem that has to be addressed.  Let's look at the roots of what I believe is behind all of this.

     As you know, I promote an understanding of the 5th dimension and its arrival onto the Earth plane once again.  The 5th dimension is all about standing in the vibrant energy of our true essence.  It is all about being who we truly are:  aspects of the Creator existing fully in love.  When a person commits a senseless violent act and takes another life, they have momentarily forgotten their holiness as an inseparable part of All that Is.  Since this is a planet of free will, all actions are allowed - even the taking of life.  That is not to say that Earthly justice will not be done, it will.  However, those who take life may likely face a heavy burden on their souls.  This has been part of the human experience for thousands of years.  It is said that none of us have been untouched by this in our many incarnations on this plane.  We have killed and we have been killed.  Some of you may recall lifetimes where you have died as martyrs for your causes.  Some know of loved ones lost in wars or on the streets of our cities.  It does not matter, we are all touched by it because we are all part of the human family, the human experience that is now moving to a higher octave.

     Presently it is estimated by myself and others that about 10% of the population of our planet is now attuned to some degree to 5th dimensional consciousness.  It is increasing, albeit more slowly than many had hoped.  Our collective desire to want change, while also remaining in the comfort of the known has slowed us down.  This cartoon I found the other day illustrates our collective dilemma:

     We are all awakening, and in this awakening we are seeing the effects of what we have created while we have been mostly unconscious over the previous decades.  Anyone who studies history will tell you that the last 100 years have been the bloodiest in human history, a time of truly barbaric actions across the planet.  Now we are looking here in the United States at a nation that is as divided socially and economically as it has ever been.  Fears abound and are bubbling to the surface.  Some say we need guns to protect ourselves from the tyranny of our elected governments.  Some say we must prepare, for the "end times" are coming.  Others say the killing must be stopped and want to abolish all weapons.  We live on a planet that is still 90% asleep to the massive changes that are already underway and are unstoppable.  And with that, those of us we are awakening to the truth of who we really are have to stay strong during this transition and project healing in whatever form to those around us, for just as Jesus Christ said when he was being crucified "Lord, forgive them, for they do not know what they do".  

     We really have no idea the power each of us has to create change and to become who we truly are, co-creators with G-d, All that is, or whatever you wish to term it.  It is said that we are at maybe 1/50th of our capacity as human beings, so we have much more to claim for ourselves.  This is the journey of consciousness raising that we are all on.  Many of us have returned to assist in this process, knowing beforehand fully how difficult it was going to be.  Progress has been made, and even more progress will be made as it is becoming easier for each successive generation to claim their divinity outside of the constructs of the world we have inherited.

Do you wish to see differently?

     I imagine that there are many of you who wish to see differently in the world, I know that I do.  I do not wish to see the violence, the discord, the rampant conflicts of a confused world that seems to be coming apart at this moment.  Now, in order to see differently each of us needs to continue to claim a part of ourselves that is now more available than ever - our higher self/divine self aspects.  What we currently see is a world that is lived primarily through the small self- the ego/personality aspects of self that we all know about.  To live at only this level will always bring conflict in one form or another.  Fear, and all of its derivatives, anger, jealousy, coveting what others have are some examples.  This is blindly promoted by our media because our media (Internet, TV, etc) primarily focuses on those aspects of self, only increasing the magnitude of these experiences across the world.  None of us is immune to seeing in this way, however I want you to know that there are other options for us to seriously consider as we move forward.

To release fear, grow love

     It is simple, what we focus on expands.  If you are feeding yourself a diet of worries and fears, you will attract to you those things that reflect and reinforce that preference.  Notice how you feel when you dwell on the negative.  Do you feel your well-being?  Do you feel peace?  Probably no is the answer.  We have to be careful gardeners of our thoughts and of what we take in from the world, while still remaining engaged with it.  In every moment we have a choice on how we respond to what we are experiencing.  Claim your power of choice to say no to that which disturbs your peace, your joy.  Guard those states of being for they are of great value to each of us.

     I was chatting with a friend recently about how we have been feeling numb and desensitized to all of the recent violence.  It was difficult to recall all of the recent tragedies as they have come in such quick succession.  I am certain we are all experiencing a range of feelings like this and it only serves to pull our vibrations lower.  Demand more for yourself to stop this cycle!  Start by practicing kindness to yourself and your loved ones in small ways.  Speak of the desire to create peace and share joys with one another.  In my life I have increased my exercise to reduce physical tension and I make sure to go outdoors and walk barefoot on the grass to ground myself and to enjoy nature.  Notice the rhythm of nature is healing to us and engage with it.  Limit negative speech by refocusing conversations with others onto what is good.  Many of us have the habit of speaking of others challenges or the negative news of the day.  Resist the temptation to add to the fear by keeping it alive through your words.  The next part of this is to work to claim an expanded perception of yourself as a powerful, capable, loving being by invoking your birthright as a being of love.

Inviting love into your life with the higher self/Divine Self

     In order to break the cycle of living at a level that is "less than", we need to examine more deeply the human condition and where we are in the present moment.  Being human means to experience a life as a human.  To be here means we all will experience change.  Some of it we will label good, and other times it may be labeled "not so good" or bad.  All experiences serve in your journey no matter how you may label them.  As a conscious being, we have choice, and we make choices based on all of the inputs we receive from life, along with our collected memories.  Where we are now going is to a place, a state of awareness that we do not have conscious memory of, maybe just a vague feeling or fleeting notion.  Through conscious intent and steady application we begin to ascend the spiral of consciousness and in doing so we move to what I term a refined set of experiences.  So often spiritual or metaphysical pursuits are used by many as another form of escapism.  To want to escape the discomfort of being human many delude themselves that by reading a book or taking a course or following a practise for a while, they will ascend, in some way placing themselves "above it all" or even will leave the planet in some hoped for ascension.  That is not the point!  You and I decided to come here and be in this experience for a full life, not to just check out prematurely.  Question yourself gently from time to time as to why you are doing what you are doing, and if it still serves you.

     You are not broken and in need of "repair".  It is just that we have all been led to one degree or another to misidentify ourselves as being something we are not.  It is as if you looked at your big toe and it was all you could see and pronounced to yourself " I am a big toe".  Well eventually you would come to understand that that toe is attached to a foot and the foot to a leg, and the leg to a whole person.  The same analogy applies to who you really are on the energetic level.  While our body is the focus of where our energy resides, it also exists around us, and is always connected to Source.  It is up to us to know this is true and then take the actions that will allow for us to claim ourselves in this higher octave.  This claiming is key to where we now are as a human family.  As each of us works to and is successful in opening ourselves through the vibrations of love already here in this 5th dimensional environment we exist within, we are building a new life for ourselves and also supporting the creation of the new Earth, the next stage of evolution on this planet.

     Now this claim cannot be made from the small self.  It must come through your willingness to open your heart so that you can transmit your claim of your divine self to become present and actively involved in your life, once you are willing to relinquish your small self's claim on the throne of your life.  This is an act of courage, because to do this means letting go of an idea that you can really know yourself in truth from the level of your ego and personality.  As one opens to the idea that more can be claimed beyond this, it will bring up massive resistance from the small self, which sees itself threatened with annihilation.  Do you see the parallels in the way much of the global culture is being experienced right now?  This is the macro mirror we all see when we tune in to it.  

     Now this is not to say that many, many wonderful things aren't also happening.  Many movements for peace and an end to violence are beginning to push through this haze of fear and anger.  People are waking up and saying "there must be a better way", "this violence must stop".  Of course there will be a chorus of people arguing for the limitations of humanity, that this is the way it's always been and it will exist as it always has been.  I heartily disagree.  Our collective impatience sometimes distracts us from our better nature, and now many awaken to new possibilities as the old, dead energy fades away and new generations are born.  Those who are but children now and those yet to come in the coming decades are a vanguard of not only change, they are the bringers of transformation.  A clear path has been laid for them by all of us being here and doing our service, no matter how large or small.  

Who the hell are you to think you are a Divine Being?

     To know the self is to go beyond the constructs of the experiences and choices we have made so far in our lives.  Does it seem presumptuous to dare to claim your our divinity?  If so, then you are hearing the voice of the small self guarding her kingdom.  This internal voice that argues for your limitations is doing so because it believes it will be annihilated by a dangerous world.  She runs a litany of examples through your mind as she says, "remember what they said on the news", or "that didn't work before so it's not likely to work now".  These are just a couple of examples.  You can entertain many excuses for not doing your work to continue to grow and that is a choice.  Are you happy with it or do you want more?  The more is now coming from practicing recognizing the still small voice within your heart that is always there.  Often it is drowned out by the small self, but you can hear it if you are willing to make time for it.  In my previous posting I also shared a claiming of the divine self that comes from the work of Paul Selig (www.paulselig.com).  Say it daily for a couple weeks several times a day and watch what happens to you.  It goes like this  "I know who I am in truth, I know how I serve in truth.  I am here, I am here, I am here."  By doing this you are making the claim of self to a much higher level than you ever have before, and it is your birthright to have it present in your life.  

     When you make this claim, you are setting into motion an invitation for your higher self/divine self to come into your life and affairs as you.  This is not an invasion, you invited it in because you know there is more to you than the story you have created for yourself thus far.  Be prepared however, to cleanse yourself of the accumulated dust and grime of who you are not, for there is only one captain at the helm of your life, you as the small self or you as your higher self.  The small self/ego will still exist, it just will not be captaining the ship of your life anymore.  You may find that your desires begin to shift to a simpler way of life as you do this.  Or, you may be inspired to go on a whole new path of creation in your life.  Either way you and I are in the process of becoming and coming into alignment with more of who we really are in truth.  We are peeling away the masks we have become so fond of for so many years.  This is the path of transformation leading to evolution.  It is truly the path of ascension that so many seek to have bestowed upon themselves.  There is work required and your intent is your choice.  No matter how you choose, you cannot choose wrongly.  All serves your path.  It is just that the more you are willing to choose consciously, the more likely it is that you will move into joy (journeying onward yielding to what you want) than fear(a very persistent and vivid illusion).

To heal the world

     Many people speak that their calling is the "heal the world", yet won't take the time to look at their own life and realize that starting there is the first point of action.  Yes, the world needs healing.  Absent of humans, the Earth could heal itself in a few hundred years all by itself.  She is that smart and that capable.  Heal yourself first.  Just as the safety program on an airplane says "put the oxygen mask on yourself before assisting others", help yourself to move into a space of allowing this energy that is you in higher form to claim you.  It will do the work that is needed as you allow it to come into your life.  Yes, it requires trust.  Yes, it is an unknown, yet you have experienced unknowns before and gone through them and now you are here!  So give yourself the gift of first knowing that this option exists, then exploring it for yourself.  We are so much more than we have believed ourselves to be.  Wouldn't it be fun to claim more of your power and get to live from that place?  I think so!

     Develop a small practice at first, so that you don't threaten your small self so much that she closes avenues for your growth.  As I mentioned, a few minutes of meditation early or late in the day is a wonderful practice.  Also, experiment with creating your next day before you sleep.  Make a short list of what you wish to accomplish and then sleep on it, allowing your unconscious to work for you.  Turn off the TV or computer an hour before bed and give yourself time to do this small work.  You can also connect with your partner in a gentle way before you sleep, taking those loving feelings with you to your bed rather than some random electronic transmission.  Start to believe that there is sacredness to your life and look for evidence of it.  Remember, what you focus on expands.  

     In the coming months and years there will be lots of distraction and noise as the 90% of us who are still asleep begin to grapple with the reality that being comfortably uncomfortable is not really much of a choice anymore.  Be the example by moving your life into resonance of the higher frequencies of the emerging Earth.  Bless the old Earth as it passes away.  It has taught us all so many lessons, ones that need not be repeated.  Join with yourself in whatever way you can, be willing to release the small self and invite in the real you to join in the unfolding of the next step of claiming your true inheritance, for it is not in dollars or Euros, it is in the light and love of your true being.

Blessings,

Robert

Learning and knowing in the present - Ascension, terrorism, Earth changes

     Facts, beliefs, knowledge and finally wisdom.  These are things that we all contend with while living here on planet Earth.  And as we know, when facts and beliefs change, new knowledge will result.  If we are fortunate enough we gain wisdom that we can share in whatever manner we like.  So I would like to welcome you back to another installment of inspired (hopefully!) writing on what we are all experiencing now in this stage of life within the 5th dimension.

     My name is Robert and I will be your guide and teacher for this piece of important information as we now head into the second half of 2016, "The year of completion" as I have titled it in a previous posting.  My belief about being a successful teacher is to find ways to empower my students so that they can access their own innate wisdom and mastery.  This effort was inspired in large part by a conversation I had with a fellow teacher and facilitator of this work.  The more that is shared in truth, the more love expands, it cannot be any other way!

Where are we right now?

     It's been very interesting watching global events in the last couple months.  It is clear that existing paradigms of government and commerce are being pushed to make significant changes or face becoming obsolete.  This is not a small thing as these systems have been operating for in many cases more than a century and we have become quite used to them.  In addition, we continue to see more frequent and horrific acts of terrorism in the USA, Europe and the near east (Turkey), to mention only a few.  And thirdly, we continue to contend with climate abnormalities on a global scale, especially in the areas of drought/floods, and a lot of earthquake activity as well (Thankfully minor!) If one watches the news too much one can start to believe that we are approaching the end of days, we're not!

What is happening?

     We live on a plane of consciousness that is predominantly ruled by vibration.  As I have stated in previous postings, the Earth herself has successfully transitioned to the 5th dimension, a higher vibratory rate of its consciousness than we have experienced for thousands of years.  Most people on the planet are now bouncing between 3rd, 4th and 5th dimensional consciousness.  Consciousness is supported by the choices we each make, whether they be low or high vibration choices.  All is allowed and there are as many paths to home as there are people.  You know you are on track when you are feeling good, living in a flow and your heart is happy.  This is possible for anyone who truly wishes it and is willing to do their work.

     In a manner of speech, if you could imagine the whole surface of the Earth as a giant "living room" and we've all just ordered new furniture and the truck has arrived a day early and now we are rushing around clearing out the old furnishings in order to move in the new.  This is what is occurring.  And we know it will be uncomfortable for a while as we make this transition.  At the end of it we will have a much more appropriate and enjoyable living room.

     This process of creating the new living room is bringing to our attention the old issues within ourselves as individual persons that need to be cleared.  You cannot take your baggage with you and you would not truly want to anyway.  Less is more in the 5th dimension.  As I previously mentioned, it is also degrading institutions that were built on the foundation of the old energy, ones that simply will not last.  We see this as great political discontent in the U.K, and the U.S.A. and other countries as well.  This will continue for a number of years until a realignment is successful.  This is not another version of the "New World Order" that was nearly foisted upon us by those who use fear and control as their main tools.  In truth it is a new creation we are all making to represent the next step of transformation and evolution of human consciousness through the application of love.

Things to do
     As I write this at the end of June 2016 we are in a relatively quiet period of rest and integration.  The summer solstice that was on June 20 on the full moon ushered in quite a bit of unseen energies across the planet.  If you are feeling unusually tired this is why.  Remember to get into nature as often as you can.  Things that are extremely beneficial right now are:  going barefoot on the Earth(assists with grounding oneself and harmonizing the frequency of the body), swimming in clean water(natural springs, lakes, even ocean all assist in emotional balancing), watching sunrise/sunsets(the best time of the day to draw beneficial energy of the Sun into our bodies).  Consider that we have bodies that are perfectly designed to operate on this planet and it will make sense why these simple things are so perfect to do.  If you live in a large city of concrete and steel you can still find a park to connect to and if not you can visualize yourself consciously connecting despite being on the 22nd floor of your apartment building.

     The body is going through a lot right now and some are having major struggles.  Seek to keep yourself strong first before you give away your energy to another who cries out.  It may be their lesson that they have created for themselves.  Offer loving support and encouragement but resist the impulse to "rescue" another.  There are truly no victims here.

Creating your masterpiece

     As a teacher, a person such as this is also going through their process.  They have had to learn by experience so that they can offer assistance to those who in reality are only one step behind.  As the teacher acknowledges more of their own knowing, they move into greater states of love and truth and serve as lighthouses to others who are finding their way.  Much learning in fact is un-learning things that no longer serve.

     Consider the analogy of the sculptor carving the large block of granite into a beautiful statue.  The sculptor senses the masterpiece within the marble.  They are only removing the "excess" marble to reveal that which was already there in their mind's eye.  So it is with each of us.  Life takes our existence, our "hunk of marble" and fractures it, chips it, tumbles it and polishes it as we go along.  More and more we reveal to ourselves who we truly are and how we see ourselves.

     To create your masterpiece go into your heart and ask it what it wants next.  Then take a step into faith that your heart knows more than your head and start moving towards it, whatever it may be.  It is that simple.  We are each creating a new knowing of ourselves by taking a step into the unknown.  Trust that you will be provided for in perfect ways as you do this.  This is the leap of faith we all have to take if we are to grow, to go beyond the known.  Self-talk is also very helpful.  You have the right to command the ship of your life.  Do not expect others to do it for you.  Here is a beautifully simple thing you can say each day to align yourself.  It is from a book by Paul Selig, a prolific author and channel for simple spiritual truths.   Please say this now:  "I am now choosing to align my energy systems to the highest frequency available to me.  And I align myself to my own Divine Knowing and to the love and to the frequency of love that I now exist in.  I am Word through this intention.  Word I am Word."

     How does that feel to you?  If you notice it uses I am, which is the most powerful activator of Creator energy.  It also uses Word, which to me is a more complete term for vibration.  In the Christian Bible, book of John it also speaks of Word:  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."  Creation, in my understand, began with light and vibratory frequency.  And so it will be re-created the same way.  The other night I saw a TV show about a deep undersea shark that hunts by finding the electrical vibration of its prey, something every living thing possesses!

Reject fear whenever possible

     We all know of our obsession with fear in all of its forms.  It is everywhere until we stop feeding it.  Simply put, fear feeds fear and love feeds love.  Since everything we witness was created by Word, it is truly love.  Fear is only a very persistent illusion that will fall away as we claim our mastery within the 5th dimension.  It cannot exist there.  As the living room is re-arranged on our Earth, there will be continuing last gasps of fear trying to hold on, a futile attempt in the energy we all now exist within.  We are each participating in the creation of a new human experience that is a quantum leap beyond where we have been.  Why else would we want to be here, to witness and to lay claim to our birthright!  This is not Rapture, this is not Apocalypse.  This is emergence of Terra Nova, the New Earth.  It is not being dropped on our heads, we are creating it!

     Go forth knowing that new possibilities for you to express your love are waiting for you to discover and live.  Value yourself and the love that is your essence.  Each of you are masters working to remember yourselves.  I honor each of you for being here during this tremendous transition and I thank you for each effort, for indeed it blesses us all.  May you be blessed on your journey and always in your true Knowing.



Have a great midsummer everyone!

The US presidential election - what does it mean from a 5D perspective?

     Greetings and welcome to another exploration of the unfolding of 5D consciousness on this lovely planet we call Earth!  Today I will be taking a look at the United States presidential election and offering you my thoughts as to what it means from the perspective of living on a 5th dimensional planet, one that still appears to be operating as it always has, but in fact is in the throes of major change.  It promises to be a very eventful Fall election season indeed!

     Why examine this election?  First and foremost, it is a perfect mirror for where mass consciousness is at this time.  By studying this event we can see the interplay of duality working on a large scale.  This by no means is not limited to the United States, it exists in similar forms across the globe.  Secondly, by examining this, one can decide how they will choose to interact with it.  Change is occurring and forms that do not resonate with truth are under increasing pressure to transform or be rendered obsolete and abandoned.

     I want you the reader to know that I do not implicitly support any specific candidate or political party.  My intention is to look at the energy behind these political movements for the purpose of creating more conscious awareness of the evolution that is occurring.  It is clear that evolution does not occur in a straight line, it takes many fits and starts, many failures before success is reached.  It is happening over many years, as much as some of us would like it to change in a year or two.  Overcoming the illusory nature of reality as we have believed it to be takes much preparation and many generations of souls doing their work upon the planet.  That being said we are in a period where we are likely to see some advances in shorter time frames, even if that means the dissolution of certain institutions and organizations we have taken for granted over the last century.

     Like any large country, the USA is composed of many different groups of people.  These people, like anywhere on the planet, are unique souls with varying levels of consciousness.  These varying levels of consciousness and education create many viewpoints that need to be mediated into a coherent pattern.  We call this government.  The great thing about the USA is its inspired constitution and its story.  It was created as a place to escape the tyranny of old Europe with a system of checks and balances built into its system of government.  Even so, in present time and for much of the last few decades it has been a tyrant itself, exerting its political, economic and military will across the planet, even to this day.  So, in this time of the early 21st century there is going to be a need for the USA to re-invent itself, so to speak, in order to remain true to its founding principles and thrive for the next century and beyond.  This convergence of re-assessment combined with the changing winds of political fortunes portends great change in the coming decades.  As more and more continue to awaken to the idea that they do not wish to support the status quo, the fuel for change is ignited!

     Now let's examine the candidates.  As of now they are Donald Trump(Republican), Hillary Clinton(Democrat) and Bernie Sanders(Democrat).  One of these three people will become the next President of the United States, a very important job.  Let's look at some of the adjectives that might be attributed to each person.

Trump:  Huge ego, ambitious, tactless, narrow-minded.

Clinton:  Tenacious, ambitious, mentally tough, experienced.

Sanders:  Principled, idealistic, compassionate, wisdom.

     All of these people are intelligent and capable individuals with decades of experience to draw upon, yet in current polling the two front-runners (Trump and Clinton) have the most unfavorable ratings of anyone running for President in the last 35 years.  Many see this as a choice between the "lesser of two evils".  Perhaps it is not as bad as a totalitarian or autocratic state but it is definitely not how many would have hoped.  Why is this?

     In my view, both Trump and Clinton represent the old order.  This means that they both operate from a strong mental basis and see the current system as something they can "steer" in a way based on their positions and constituency.  They are both enamored of power for its own sake, make no mistake.  Sanders, on the other hand, sees the struggles of common person, and for his whole career has fought for the working class, for which the media has branded him a dangerous Socialist.

     Let's dig deeper.  As I've written in previous postings, the current time period is the returning and re-living of the last days of the Atlantean energy upon the planet, to be resolved through mediating with the Lemurian energies, which also have and equal claim to the human experience.  I identify both Trump and Clinton holding the flag of the Atlantean energy, and Sanders holding the Lemurian energy.  The first is all about mental strength- what you think, not what you feel.  Trump has famously shown that he does not put much value in other's feelings except to inflame negative ones, and Clinton is often accused of having no true definable position except that which her campaign advisers feed her.  Sanders, however, strikes a chord of compassion, eliciting millions of small donations, even having a bird land on his podium during on speech.  The implication is that he attunes to the feelings of many people and of nature itself.

     The assertion I am making is that we in the United States are in the midst of a transitioning of energies of change, from old to new.  This is not merely a generational change, it is an energetic change.  As the older people retire and pass away they are yielding to younger souls with a stronger connection to their sovereignty as spiritual beings living a human existence and they will demand changes be made to align to that innate impulse.  The older generations typically compartmentalize their spiritual energies in affiliation to certain religions and practices at prescribed times.  The souls that have been coming to life on Earth in the last 15 years and in the coming decades are already attuned to being here because this is a 5th dimensional planet.  In the ensuing years we will see turbulence to one degree or another as the old yields to the new.  This will be reflected in governance and political systems not just in the USA but all across the planet.

     It is a given that change occurs.  Most change in the previous half century has been in material comfort for the most part.  However, this is a planet that is in the midst of a great shift of consciousness that will not be usurped by the maintenance of a political or economic status quo.  We as a human species have collectively asked for this change at a soul level and have been making choices as to how it unfolds.  That said there are likely to be a series of critical junctures that will arrive to spur the process onward.  People all over the world are demanding change, while the current system works to placate the masses, it is losing its grip on that as more becomes known about the failings of current systems of government.  No one side has a monopoly on truth, it will be up to the people to decide how to mediate the system through active participation in creating new pathways for people to cooperate with one another while retaining their right to their personal sovereignty.

     As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, we are seeing a reality mirroring back to us where the ego rules, control systems are favored, and where the desire for a more compassionate and just world is beginning to be heard.  These are aspects of the Atlantean and Lemurian energies engaging one another in order to mediate.  It is not about one aspect conquering the other.  Both are needed in a new way, for this new point in time.  The small self (ego) will always endeavor to protect its small kingdom, because it knows no other way.  As we continue to move forward and embrace the unknown of being guided by our heart energies because we trust that part more, we will open to a new way of living and being on this planet.  It will happen, in reality it has happened.  All that there is to do is to cultivate the space within ourselves to allow it to manifest.  Are we ready to take the risk of wanting better at the expense of giving up the known?  That is the question facing each of us individually and collectively at this point in time.

     The manner in which we have created societies, nations and states upon this planet has been based on a system of energy that is no longer supported.  You could say, "well things are much as they have been", but are they?  The energies that are now currently rooted on the planet are those of 5th dimensional consciousness.  All one needs to know about that at this point is that creation is now based on living on vibrant energy (L.O.V.E.)  This means that we are invited (and perhaps challenged) to go beyond a world created by ego(small self) that has love intermixed in it, to a world created by L.O.V.E. with the small self taking a subordinate position.  Looking at the candidate Trump we have a perfect example of one who is totally driven by ego and separation.  He promotes separation with his xenophobic campaign promises and it resonates with all of the other small selves who are in fear.  Clinton is mostly neutral in this area.  She promotes more of the status quo with incremental changes.  This is likely based on her many years of experience with the slow pace of change in government.  Sanders promotes a benevolent vision of caring for people without an explanation of how that can be achieved.  He gives voice to compassion and fairness in how government serves its citizens.  While he is unlikely to succeed facing the entrenched monolith of the current system he is laying the groundwork for awakening many in the younger generations and this is creating more possibilities for the future.

How will this affect us individually?

     If we are honest with ourselves, for the most part the person who becomes President does not limit our choices in life.  Yes, one leader or another may raise or lower taxes, may start or end a war.  They may promote policies that some support and others oppose.  In our day to day lives we here in the USA still have the freedom of choice on how we will choose to live and work.  We are able to participate in shaping the political process if we choose, or not.  My guides have told me explicitly that it is the wish of all persons to improve their lives.  Here we can have a basis of agreement when we select those who will represent us.  It begins with the choices we make within our own families and communities and radiates upwards to states and nations.  It is not top-down as we are often taught to accept and believe.  In the energies of 5D the more we each take responsibility for what we are experiencing and choosing to not pretend we are victims of circumstances outside ourselves, the more we are each reinforcing our alignment to where we truly reside in the present.

     In six months time we will know who has been chosen to lead.  In the meantime, instead of becoming distracted by the political deluge, trust yourself to focus on supporting the candidate that best aligns with the energies of the reality we now exist within - the 5th dimension.  This applies to all candidates for office.  Listen to your greater self when making your choices, and avoid making choices based on what the small self alone may cry out for.  Either way, we are moving forward.  Choose the energies of peace, of grace, of harmony.  They will serve you well.

   
   Blessings,

I know who you are

     Welcome back to a further exploration in living within the 5th dimension.  I invite you to take a few breaths and ground your energy into your body as we go on this journey together.  Today we will explore a bit around what it means to be living in a body on this planet at this time of great change.  It is my intent to offer you some thoughts and questions to spur you onward in your journey to becoming more.

     We are each complex, multi-faceted beings that are beginning to remember some of the tools we have at our disposal.  Keep this in mind:  at it's essence we are spiritual beings of love and light that have chosen to embody within human experience in order to have an opportunity.  What is that opportunity?  Simply stated, it is the opportunity to evolve our consciousness.

     In recent times, I have been directed to become more aware of that part of each of us termed the divine self and I would like to share with you what I have learned so far.  In my understanding, the divine self is who we truly are in a grander context of the spiritual planes.  It is assisting us to make the leap into the unknown, beyond the "small self" of our ego and personality so that we can embody more of who we truly are as we are here in the physical.  I would say that what I have termed as the higher self is "the bridge" to the divine self.  The higher self is with us within the domain of the 8th chakra, approximately 18 inches or 40-50 cm above our heads.  The divine self inhabits a higher plane of consciousness beyond, yet is not separate from us.  There is no separation, it is only in the current experience that we perceive the various guises of separation which in essence are very convincing illusions.

     There is a powerful declaration that I would like to share with you.  It comes through Paul Selig, a prominent channel and author of several books, which he has dictated from his guides.  It goes like this:

I know who I am, I know what I am, I know how I serve. I am here. I am here, I am here.

If you say this out loud to yourself you are affirming that the bridge from your small self to your divine self is open and activated.  You are affirming who you are on a higher level, and inviting it in to you here in this plane of consciousness.  In effect, by doing this you are claiming yourself at an expanded level to be present here and now.

Why?

     Why do this?  What will come of it?  I am not saying that some of you aren't already inviting higher energies into your life in a variety of ways.  There is not one path alone by any means.  I happen to resonate with this one for its simplicity and power.  It cuts through all of the resistance and gets right to the core.  Notice how prominently the phrase "I am" is used in it.  Throughout history on this planet "I am" has been used to refer to the Creator, which we are all part of.  There is no need to choose intermediaries to one's own divinity.  You may choose that if you like, and there is nothing wrong with that choice.  In saying this declaration, you are claiming (key word) you on a higher level to be present in truth here and now.

     When we say things like, I am a teacher, I am a lawyer, I am a healer, I am(etc.) we are claiming that energy for ourselves and activating the creator within us to out picture that in our reality.  It engages to motivation to fulfill this declaration through truth.  Now it is also true that we see around us many who claim things about themselves that are not true.  This is not the type of claiming I am referring to, those types of claims come from the small self.  Often the small self, who feels separate in a dangerous world, will claim all sorts of things to build itself up to protect it from a "dangerous" world.  You might also refer to the teachings of the book A Course in Miracles to further illustrate this.  One lesson in that book now comes to mind:  "My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability".  This shows clearly that when one is operating in the truth of who they really are, attack is impossible.  I have also written about this in previous articles that indeed in the vibrations of the 5th dimension fear in all its forms simply cannot exist!

    It is true that this is a bit of a leap to get to from the world we presently inhabit.  It is almost that we all have claimed fear as a birthright.  It is simply an energy of a lower vibration that we are all working on releasing and leaving behind to one degree or another.  Give yourself credit, think of all the times you were in love, whether it was with a partner, a creation of yours, or just with a beautiful day you enjoyed.  You are doing this, now continue to practice focusing on bringing more of it into your life, keeping in mind that what you focus on expands.

In case of fear, do this:

     Presently in the United States we are in the midst of a hotly contested Presidential election.  In this process it is quite easy to see where fear is being used by many if not all of the candidates in one way or another.  I am going to use this to illustrate how one can approach this in order to not give any more energy to the fear, while also simultaneously standing in the truth of who you are.
   
     If you are claiming your own divine self to be present to you, keep in mind that all humans are created equal in the eye of the creator.  It is just that many have forgotten or even rejected their divine selves, or maybe they remain unaware of it at all.  Look at those people through the eyes of one who knows that they have the same access to this energy as you.  See them in the light of their true being.  If you like you can send them love, compassion or any prayer you may have that they see beyond the illusion of them only being a personality self.  By holding this intent, you and I are then not feeding the fear, feeding the illusion of separation.  Work to stay out of the reactive mind - it is the domain of the small self and it will always choose separation because it believes it must protect itself from annihilation. Any of us do have the experience that the vast majority of our fears never materialize, so embolden yourself to saying no to fear.

The times we live in

     Everything is moving and changing.  It is the way of physical creation on this planet and throughout the known multi-verse.  Each of us is changing with every breath.  At times it may seem like nothing is changing, or worse, things are regressing.  This is merely a very good illusion.  There are choices being made by each and every being on the Earth, and by the Earth herself.

     The problems we face, both individually and collectively, cannot be solved at the level they were created.  These require each of us boldly claiming a larger part of our true selves in conscious awareness so that we can make choices which will lead us to the best possible outcomes.  It is an often repeated error of thinking that we are doing this all alone.  It is by strengthening our connection to our personal unbreakable link to the Creator that will re-build the rickety bridge into a super highway of connection to new ideas and inspiration on how to live our lives.  Many have said that we must tap into the wisdom of our heart and release our over-reliance on the head (mental thinking).  It is not that thinking will go away, it is that we will come to realize it's limits.

     You have a right to be here, in this time.  You are worthy of all your soul has placed in your heart for you to discover and feel as your passion.  You are capable of creating beyond where you are now.  In this transitory period there will be many who will choose to resist change, and there are many more who are wanting change to something better.  This is what we are all witnessing in the United States election, in Europe with the refugee crisis, and in many other countries.  You do not have to be negatively affected by the dramas of others acting out.  Always choose peace and listen to your heart.  It will direct you to where you need to be.  The old and outworn is giving way to that which is coming.  The progress already made in the last 30 years has been remarkable.  Acknowledge how far you have come in your being from that of your parents and grandparents.  Imagine how much more will be available for those just arriving and those yet to come.

Begin to be more of who you are

     Consider who you are for a moment.  How did you come to be?  Isn't  it obvious that the ego personality and body you and I claim as our own, is something that we did not create from our present awareness?  To me it is obvious that a greater part of consciousness that each of us is always connected to has been intimately involved with getting you and I to here and now.  I call this aspect our soul, or perhaps Divine self.  Whatever you may call it, I believe it created a pathway for us to have a human experience in order to have the conditions to achieve the healing and learning that we individually need the most.  It is important to note that each human being has different reasons as to why they have claimed a human experience.  Being human means we have a need to harmonize the mental and emotional information/energy of the human experience in order to create an opening for more to inform our human system.  This "more" is what we invite and receive via the higher self - divine self - soul.  As we do this we do a great service for ourselves and the world around us.  Teach others peace by being peace, teach others love by loving.  To me it makes perfect sense that the essence of our soul energy is love, is peace.  As we bring it in, we infused our environment, our businesses, our governments with this energy and it is then finally reflected back to us in the reality we truly wish to live in.  This is our work at this time.  Stay steady in your efforts, you are greatly loved for all you do in your journey here in this moment.

 Blessings to each of you,


Robert
